Find the equation of a line that goes through the point ( 3 , -5 ) and has a slope of 2. Write your answer in slope intercept form (that is when the equation is simplified and the y is isolated
:
Start with the point/slope formula; y - y1 = m(x - x1)
:
Substitute for x1, y1 and m (slope)
:
y -(-5) = 2(x - 3)
y + 5 = 2x - 6
y = 2x - 6 - 5
y = 2x - 11
